BANANA IV: Two aligned stellar rotation axes in the young eccentric binary system EP Crucis: primordial orientation and tidal alignment
With observations of the EP Cru system, we continue our series of
measurements of spin-orbit angles in eclipsing binary star systems, the BANANA
project (Binaries Are Not Always Neatly Aligned). We find a close alignment
between the sky projections of the rotational and orbital angular momentum
vectors for both stars (beta_p = -1.8+-1.6 deg and |beta_s|<17 deg). We also
derive precise absolute dimensions and stellar ages for this system. The EP Cru
and DI Her systems provide an interesting comparison: they have similar stellar
types and orbital properties, but DI Her is younger and has major spin-orbit
misalignments, raising the question of whether EP Cru also had a large
misalignment at an earlier phase of evolution. We show that tidal dissipation
is an unlikely explanation for the good alignment observed today, because
realignment happens on the same timescale as spin-orbit synchronization, and
the stars in EP Cru are far from syncrhonization (they are spinning 9 times too
quickly). Therefore it seems that some binaries form with aligned axes, while
other superficially similar binaries are formed with misaligned axes.Comment: ApJ accepted, 10 pages, 7 figure
Pengaruh Konsentrasi Pupuk Organik Cair Diperkaya Rhizobacteri Osmotoleran terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Hasil Tanaman Padi pada Kondisi Cekaman Kekeringan
This study aimed to know the best concentration of Liquid Organic Fertilizer enriched with Rhizobacteri Osmotolerance to enhance plant growth and yield of rice in drought stress conditions. This research was conducted using single factor experiment arranged in a completely randomized design (RAL). The treatments tested are concentrations of POC 5 ml / l + NPK fertilizer 50% recommendations, POC concentration of 10 ml / l + NPK fertilizer 50% recommendations, POC concentration of 15 ml / l + NPK fertilizer 50% recommendations, POC concentration of 20 ml / l + NPK fertilizer 50% recommendations, and NPK fertilizer 100% recommendations with three replications. The results showed that Liquid Organic Fertilizer enriched with Osmotoleran Rhizobacter can reduce NPK fertilizers until 50%. Liquid Organic Fertilizer concentration of 15 ml / l + NPK fertilizers 50% tend to improve the growth and production of Ciherang rice in drought stress conditions
Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran dan Kemampuan Awal terhadap Hasil Belajar dan Kemampuan Berpikir Tingkat Tinggi
Teachers in SMAN 1 Turen had tried to apply innovative learning models but some problems occurred in the implementation. The improvement of learning quality which emphasized on learning process could be done by giving students scientific experience. The scientific experience which was implemented in Hypothetical-Deductive Learning Cycle (HDLC), Student Teams Achievement Divisions (STAD) and Direct Instruction method (DI) was expected to be able to improve the students\u27 achievement and higher order thinking skills. This research aimed to know the difference of the effect of using HDLC, STAD and DI based on prior knowledge on the chemical equilibrium toward achievement and high ordered thinking skill of XI IPA SMAN 1 Turen students. This research used a quasi experiment design with factorial design: 3x2. The research was performed in SMAN 1 Turen, research sample were chosen using cluster random sampling technique, consist of 3 classes, which are XI IPA 2 class (36 students) using HDLC, XI IPA 3 class (36 students) using STAD and XI IPA 4 class using MPL. The Instrument validity and reliability test showed that 30 questions were valid with content validity of 95,3% and the reliability of 0,917. Data was analyzed using program Statistical Package for Social Sciences 16.0 version for windows on significance degree a(alpha)= 0,05 with ANOVA test. The research showed that (1) There was a difference on students\u27 achievement and high order thinking skills of science XI SMAN 1 Turen students using HDLC, STAD and DI on the chemical equilibrium; (2) There was a difference on students\u27 achievement and high order thinking skills of science XI SMAN 1 Turen students with high and low level of prior knowledge on the chemical equilibrium; (3) There was a difference of students\u27 achievement and high ordered thinking skill using HDLC, STAD and DI with different prior knowledge
Evolved stars hint to an external origin of enhanced metallicity in planet-hosting stars
Exo-planets are preferentially found around high metallicity main sequence
stars. We aim at investigating whether evolved stars share this property, and
what this tells about planet formation. Statistical tools and the basic
concepts of stellar evolution theory are applied to published results as well
as our own radial velocity and chemical analyses of evolved stars. We show that
the metal distributions of planet-hosting (P-H) dwarfs and giants are
different, and that the latter do not favor metal-rich systems. Rather, these
stars follow the same age-metallicity relation as the giants without planets in
our sample. The straightforward explanation is to attribute the difference
between dwarfs and giants to the much larger masses of giants' convective
envelopes. If the metal excess on the main sequence is due to pollution, the
effects of dilution naturally explains why it is not observed among evolved
stars. Although we cannot exclude other explanations, the lack of any
preference for metal-rich systems among P-H giants could be a strong indication
of the accretion of metal-rich material. We discuss further tests, as well as
some predictions and consequences of this hypothesis.Comment: A&A, in pres
Critical velocity for superfluid flow across the BEC-BCS crossover
Critical velocities have been observed in an ultracold superfluid Fermi gas
throughout the BEC-BCS crossover. A pronounced peak of the critical velocity at
unitarity demonstrates that superfluidity is most robust for resonant atomic
interactions. Critical velocities were determined from the abrupt onset of
dissipation when the velocity of a moving one dimensional optical lattice was
varied. The dependence of the critical velocity on lattice depth and on the
inhomogeneous density profile was studied
Pengaruh Iklan dan Endorser terhadap Brand Awareness Serta Dampaknya pada Keputusan Pembelian
The aim of this research is to analyze the influence of brand and endorser to brand awareness and its impact to purchase decision. The authors try to fulfill the research gap that exist, i.e. combining the brand and endorser in order to predict the brand awareness, that in our best knowledge still has less attention from researchers. Research samples a number of 100 respondents, were selected through non-random sampling technique, i.e. purposive sampling. Survey method was selected with questionnaire as a tool to gain primary data.
Based on the path analysis results that has ben conduct, it\u27s revealed two sub-structure path equation Y = 0,585X1 + 0,229X2 and Z = 0,237X1 + 0,108X2 + 0,510Y. Both brand and endorser, it\u27s significantly proven influencing of the brand awareness. The consumer purchase decision significantly formed by the brand awareness as the antecedent that formed by brand and endorser. This research revealed a gap that need to be revised in the next research. Endorser failed to become antecedent of consumer purchase decision. So it will be need a better measurement, to make sure that consumer purchase decision were also can be formed by endorser.
